Been looking for more attachments for my 720 garden tractors so last week I decided that I would like to have a cultivator to use in our sweet corn patch this coming spring/summer so I fabbed one up and had my friend weld it up this past Saturday. Got it painted on Monday and reassembled today. Now if I only had an unfrozen dry place to try it out. One row cultivator that should work good on the 40 inch rows.

Sweeps are 48 inches outside to outside with 10 inches in the center for the row. Thanks for the kind words. Den

Just like the factory made - O - wait, did they make those? Probably could have used yours for the pattern. Sure looks good.

I like your design; heighth choices on the 3pt, depth choices at the two wheels, welded construction of the frame, and bolted construction for the sweeps.

I made a 2 row for 30 inch rows for the 8N a couple years ago. It worked ok till the corn got too tall to clear the crossbeam.

I'm going to be limited on height with this rig but just the same, I'll be able to use it a time or two and still have an implement to show with the tractor. Den

Den, you could get the capability of another cultivating of the corn by making a HiCrop 720; larger wheels and tires on back and lengthen the front spindles(?) several inches. Herb(GA)

A 720 was on a trailer the other day going thru town that I saw. It looked like it had Economy (Jim Dandy) style tall wheels front and back. Looked cool. Not sure if they are they same wheel pattern?

Herb(GA)...I don't know about a hi crop (although I may have to think about that) but I have been watching for some way to make a track version of a 720. Just sounds too high a price to pull it off until I find the right scrap. Den
